It is no stretch of imagination to see the schools of the future employing this great) invention to convey information to young minds in such manner that it will be permanently fixed. ‘The present problem of developing motion pictures for educational purposes is wholly commercial. Ww st is needed to obtain the most beneficial results, how ever, is an association of educators and picture pro: ducers that will work out under approved educational methods a series of films on subjects useful in sper ing information and instruction to the minds of schol- ars. It is possible to present many subjects by meee of motion pictures in better form than in ead Gora way. Aud the great industry should turn more oF h useful and devote less effort to the entertainment fea- tures than formerly. Se WHAT HAS THE SOUTH DONE? Pat Harrison of Mississippi, who holds Democratic leadership in the senate, and Tom Heflin of ae ‘who holds the first lieutenancy, scarcely permit a ay to pass without raising and offering lip service to the cause of the ex-service man. A Rerusal of the ie marks of these two senators would lead ‘the unknow- ing to believe that they come from states and Tepre- sent communities that have gone the limit in render- ing homage and assistance to the world war organs In point of fact, however, there are three sta! in § the Union which have done absolutely nothing in recog- nition of the ex-service men. These states are pe sippi, the home of Pat Harrison; Alabama, the bone of Tom Heflin; and Georgia, the home of Tom Wa' son. According to a chart issued by the American Legion Weekly, the official organ of the American Lee gion, these three states are the only three states whic! have refused to take any action of any kind in recog- nition of the ex-service man or in assistance to him. They have not even so much as given him a poll tax exemption, or legally protected the American Legion emblem, or given state civil service preference to him in public employment, or admitted him to state hos- pitals, or state ‘soldiers’ homes, or provided for public memorials in his honor, or for the legal recording of the certificate of honorable discharge, or the exemp- tion of American Legion property from taxation, or free use of public buildings and armories for Amer- jean Legion meetings, or state aid in obtaining em- ployment, or provided any means of assisting him to obtain an education. i None of these minor things has been done by ether ‘Tom Heflin’s state of Alabama, Pat Harrison’s state of Mississippi, or Tom Watson's state of Georgia— three states of the Solid South democracy. Much less have they provided for any bonus or any other form of compensation, or land settlement law, or assistance te veterans wishing to buy homes, or a state relief fund for disabled veterans, or loan funds for veterans, or special hospital privileges for insane or-invalid vet- erans. In brief, the states represented by the two Demo- crats in the senate who never lose an opportunity to mouth their alleged devotion to the ex-service men have a record of “Zero” in everything pertaining to | ex-service men. Just prior to the ‘action of the house of representa-| | tives upon the bonus bill a minority report against the| faction of the Republican majority was filed by five ‘Democrats. They were Claude Kitchin, North Caro-| lina; W. A. Oldfield, Arkansas; Charles R. Crisp, Geor- gia; John E. Carew, New York; and Peter F. Tague, Massachusetts. It was not surprising that these Demo-| crats should file a minority report criticising the ac- tion of the Republican majority in connection with the bonus legislation. Neither North Carolina, Arkan-| sas nor Georgia—three solid Democratic states—has| enacted any bonns legislation. Georgia’s record of} doing absolutely nothing has just been referred to. Mr. Oldfield represents Arkansas, which has as con-) sistent a record of doing nothing for the individual ex-| service man as has Georgia, Mississippi and Alabama.} way. stead of power and force fiercely; opinions are held with great intensity; con- or) flicting interests of section, community and individ- or|ual demand their rights; obstructions are placed in | laid aside; differences of opinion are waived; mind, + ‘. |heart and soul go together to do one certain thing— —_ eae alee 7 Sunday at Casper, Natrona r ssued every evening except Sunday | whip the enemy.

Reason, experience and judgment must guide in:- Partisanship flames up| the way of the majority everywhere and at all times. This is being done now. Much of this delay is caused directly by the Democrats, as the record will show. They act as if they think they owe nothing to the country now. Yet we need an intense patriotism more new in solving the problems of peace than we did to selve the problems of war. The Democrats cannot escape their duty as the people's representatives. The problems we face are their problems, the same as they are ours. The people will not overiock these things when studying the record we have made and the tac- tics of our Democratic opponents. “The burdens the people bear come from the war and from Democratic incompetency. They do not come from us. If any have been lightened, we have done it. The $29,000,000,000 spent during the war is the debt of today ments and pay our debts. the pockets of the people to pay for the cost and waste of the war. to pay the expenses. This borrowed money and the | interest on it must be paid, and it is utterly impos- ible to reduce appropriations or taxes to the pre- war level. The Democrats themselves should be the Inst ones to complain. We must build up what they tore down. We must reorganize what they disorgan- ized. We must collect what they spent. We must pay what they owe. “The obligations that we must mect were created under the Democratic administration. cape them. We cannot dimnish them. We must pro- vide for meeting them. It ill becomes Democrats now to berate us for the appropriations we make and the taxes we levy in order to meet the obligations which they themselves contracted. “During the last two years of the Democratic ad- ministration we had a Republican congress. All e forts at economy were made by it in spite of the e& forts of the Democratic administration to add to ex- pencitures. Democratic officials sent huge estimates of their needs to congress and the Republicans cut their estimates over $3,900,000,000. In other words, if Democratic estimates had been allowed we would have had to increase taxes by $4,000,000,000 move than we are now raising. Yet our Democratic oppon- ents claim the people want a change. The people may groan under the burdens they now have, but they un- derstand the causes of the burdens and it will be a long, long time before they go to the Democratic | party for relief.” —— ARE THEY OPPOSED? Democratic leaders and publicity mediums are rais- ing quite an uproar over the introduction of a bill car- rying deficiency appropriations in the sum of $108,- 000,000. Of this amount $93,993,112 is for use by the Veterans’ Bureau, providing for additional medi- cal and hospital service and vocational training. This feature of the deficiency appropriation bill has not been referred to by the Democratic critics of the bill. It would be interesting to put them on record as to whether they are in favor of rejecting appropriations to carry om the work of the Veterans’ Bureau. a THE DAILY BALANCE. The daily balance in the general fund of the treas- ury is now running at about a billion dollars. That does not mean, however, that the people have that huge sum in the bank, so to speak, to be drawn upon for anything they may wish to buy. The big: balance is part of the plan of Secretary Mellon for caring for the obligations of over six billions that fall due in the next year and a half. From the fund he is making monthly purchases of Victory notes, redeeming treas-| ury certificates as the various issues come due, and fi- nancing all the other features of the treasury refund- ing operations. It is generally conceded that the cur- rent fiscal year will show a deficit of almost $200,- 900,000, but if no further burdens are imposed upon the treasury it will be possible to care for that sum through temporary certificates, and gradually put the financial operations of the government on a sound basis. a NOT INTERESTED. The British government is advertising in American newspapers the sale of four airships of similar con- struction to the ill-fated ZR-2. The sale is in accord- ance with the recently announced British policy to abandon further experiments with lighter than air machines. The sale is to be “with or without aero- dromes, hangars, mooring masts, hydrogen plants, equipment spares and stores.” Evidently the demo~ bilization is to be complete. But there is little chance for a sale in the United States. The ZR-2 and Roma disasters gave America a sufficiency of foreign-built dirigibles. o—____ BEGINNING RIGHT AT HOME. One of President Harding’s chief objects of econ- omy is his own home. When he went into office last year it was costing the taxpayers about $30,000 a month to run the White House. In February of this year the cost was $15,010, the lowest budget for any| month in years. —__—_____ Canadian money is no longer an orphan. search of two years it has found its Wash. After a par in Seattle, , where the retail stores now receive it on an y with the American dollar. Mr. Kitchin represents North Carolina. It was he, who, as chairman of the Democratic house ways and/| means committee, in 1917, announced, when the war) revenue taxation measure was being framed, that it was the purpose of the Democratic party to make the| north pay the expenses of the world war. It must be stated to his credit that he succeeded in carrying out| his threat. Mr. Kitchin’s record is consistent. He not only compelled the north to pay the expenses of the world war, but he is now permitting the north to take care of ex-service men. The only two things Mr Kitchin’s state has done for the ex-service man have) been to authorize the use of public money in erecting memorials to his honor (a rather empty performance) | and providing for the legal record of certificates of honorable discharge for the ex-service man. With these two insignificant exceptions North Carolina joins the ranks of Mississip’ labama and Georgia in hav- ing a record of “Zcro” in behalf of the ex-service man. | A CS ES THE DEBRIS OF WAR. Pointing out the duty of Democratic members of the congress, which is to help remove the debris of war and repair the damage wrought by it Senator Wesley Jones of Washington, has delivered some very straight talk to the opposition party which has shown inclina- tion to obstruct rather than aid in clearing the wreck- Leave No One at Home Give ’em all a treat Be off for the movies or theater to- night!

It depends wholly on a wide mouthed steel contraption with many divisional compartments’ alphabetical ly marked and surrounded with nickel trimmings. As I look at it in the twilight, it gleams at me like the |aperto oro of a hungary alligator. It was given to me by one of the office foree who became discouraged | It was her duty to clear up my desk |once in six months whether it needed |{t or not. She thought that my sad- ness and frequent tears at the dis- covery of unanswered and in some caase even unopened correspondence far down beneath the layers of news- papers and miscellany might be alle- viated by this article of efficiency. So I have a system. For instance, if T have a letter from our congreesm-in, I can at once throw it into the compartment marked “C”? for Congreseman. Then if I should be so fortun:te as to get one from Governor Baxter I can put into the compartment marked “ for |Governor. Then when I want it I jcan hunt through the “W for a jletter from White, that being the name of our congressman and when I want the governor's letter I can look through the “B’s” for Baxter. ‘When I want to file a report on Taxa- tion by Stetson I can file {t under “S” and hunt for it under “T." If 1 want to put away a bunch of infor- mation on labor matters I can file them under “L” and look for them under “‘S” for strikes. When I want to refer in the future to the Andro }scoggin Bar association I can file it |under either “A” or “B" and hunt for it under “C* for Crockett. Now here is a case. Tho yawning | jaws of the “system” caught me with a lot of data on the Squirrel Island Pageant, soon to be given at this sweet seagirt isle. I could not file systematically all at once so I filed them as I had time. As it happened jin my system, I filed a lot of them deep into the caverns of this Effi- | ciency ‘Tomb, under “P" for pageant. Then the next time I came around to |it, something in the condition of my ‘mind emphasized the Island rather than the pageant: so I filed a bunch |under “I” for Island and ptumnk, they dropped into the abyss. Then iater, feeling the need of concluding the matter of filing, I filed a bunch un- der “S” for Squirrel, and these also struck bottom. And the next day in a moment of temporary aberration, I filed a series of articles for the same purpose under “Q” for Squirrel. I know a man who has a system of filing. If he wants to file a clipping he files it with cross references and puts a card into the cabinet with everyone of these various titles capi- talized saying see “under X” or the letter where tho articles may really be found. He can find an article in- side a week every time. This man has ten or eleven of these cabinets. When he wants to run down a clip ping he hires a detecttvo, puts roller skates on him and then has daily re- ports of progress. System is one of the best things I know of. There was the old story of the man who was kicked down seven flights in an office building by @ series of efficient floorwalkers who said that he didn’t Ifke the hospital- ity but darned if he did not admire their system. System has helped a lot of firms to carry on a moderate business ‘at great expense. The ordi- nary use of a complete system is to be able to Know a lot of things that you never would care to know at only moderate cost for the information. For instance, if you wanted to haow how many postage stamps were used in the week of July 15, 1916, in your business, It might be possible to get tho information and compare it With the present trend of correspondence. System could be invoged that would give a complete record of the amount of ink used in the business office over a term of years and compare it with the spots on the sun, as well as on the office floor. System ts pos- sible of infinite variety. And noth- ing {s so liable to eat off your head. There was a chap who was doing a good business with three men and making money. He kept his accounts himself in a simple way and always knew what he had in the bank and what he owed. He hired an efficien- cy expert; put in an adding machine, a comptometer, a dictaphone, two ste- nographers, five roll-top desks, one of them covered with glass and carry. ing a bouquet culled by the stenogra- pher with the yellow hair, hired an invoice clerk, put in a shipping clerk; stopped packing goods himself to the freight car, devoted his time to computing averages and now he is working for $16 a week running an elevator.

The system I need is this: “Answer correspondénce on the day received and file the clippings in a bushel basket.” ARTHUR G.
